Most of her penguin chicks have fledged, so it is now seal counting time. These are some that have been recorded.
At Foxglove the plants are beginning to grow. Opposite-leaved Golden Saxifrage is in flower along the almost vertical sides of a small beck.
Scarlet Elf Cup always shows a bright splash of red during February and usually in the same places. You can also notice the green moss, a Wood Sorrel leaf and almost hiddden away Opposite-leaved Golden Saxifrage, which flowers much later along Risedale Beck.
